i mean, you'll be able to write things in that language, which i'd say is somewhat useful 🤔

It's kinda like asking "is it worth doing long hikes before training to do 5km runs?", you probably don't need to go on hikes in order to start running, but it's less intimidating and if you then realize you're just not into running then you're still left with a useful skill.

There's a story on royalroad called Emergence, about a victorian-ish era dude who ends up shipwrecked alone on an island filled with dragons: I love that the story treats penicillin as one of the most powerful things he has access to, along with stuff like the radio.
Like yeah sure guns are scary, but so are massive claws. The ability to cure what has hitherto been utterly untreatable guaranteed wasting death, however? Basically the power of a god.

Another story, Delve, is about a guy being isekai'd into stock fantasy world with DnD-esque mechanics and going "well that's fucking terrifying, i'm starting a union and inventing OSHA".

the definition of planet is basically "the most noteworthy objects in the solar system, limited to a number that people can easily memorize"

it should just be a straight up 10 year validity of licenses and a full redo of ALL the steps to get a license, no reason not to have that. Standards change, and you've gotta teach people the parts that have changed.
